Resumen

Asthma is a heterogeneous disease which has always had a drug treatment. Osteopathic treatment that we propose
is aimed, seen through a dorsal manipulation (Dog Technic D1-D4) and a technique for diaphragm (Longitudinal Stroke) forced
expiratory flow in spirometry changes there are in particular that there is an increase in the volumes of the Peak Flow and Post
intervention and effort and that the application of these two techniques together is more powerful if we applied only a
Longitudinal (Stroke). Also rating if this type of treatment will have repercussions on breathlessness, a very common symptom
in asthma. And finally to investigate if provided vertebra pain decreased after a manipulation. Methods—Participants were
recruited between students and professors of the University, aged 18-65, patients (n = 18) were assigned randomly to one of
the two groups, group 1 (longitudinal Stroke and manipulation dorsal Dog Technic) and group 2 (diaphragmatic technique,
Longitudinal Stroke). The statistical analysis is characterized by the comparison of the main indicator of obstruction of via area
PEF (peak expiratory flow) in various situations through the peak flow meter Datospir Peak-10. The measurements were
carried out in four phases: at rest, after the stress test, after the treatment, after treatment and the stress test. After each
stress test was evaluated, through the Borg scale, the level of Dyspnea on each patient, regardless of the group. In Group 1 in
addition to these parameters was calculated using an algometer spinous pain before and after the manipulation. All data were
taken at the minute. Results—12 Group 1 (Dog Technic and Longitudinal Stroke) patients responded positively to treatment,
there was an increase of 5.1% and 6.1% of the post-treatment PEF and post-treatment, and effort. The results of the scale of
Borg by which we measure the level of Dyspnea were positive, a 54.95%, patients noted an improvement in breathing. In
addition was confirmed through the means of both groups group 1 in which two techniques were applied was 34.05% more
effective than group 2 in which applied only a. After handling pain fell by 38% of the cases. Conclusions—The impact of the
technique of Dog-Technic for D1-D4 and the Longitudinal Stroke technique for diaphragm in the volumes of peak expiratory
flow (PEF) in asthmatic patients were positive, there was a change of the PEF Post intervention and post-treatment, and effort
and showed the most effective group in which only a technique was applied. Furthermore this type of treatment decreased
facilitated vertebrae pain and was efficient in the improvement of Dyspnea and the general well-being of the patient.
